As has been said, there appears to be no way to avoid an empty 
paragraph after the table - appearing either on the same page or a 
following one. But you can change the font size of this empty 
paragraph so as to minimise its impact. Note that, even though the 
smallest value provided in the Font Size drop-down menu is 6 pt, you 
can enter smaller values - as small as 2 pt - by typing into the Font 
Size box. Two points is pretty invisible.


If you want to be really precise, you could modify the bottom margin 
on any such page so that the last table row finishes where the bottom 
margin would have been without the rogue empty paragraph.


I trust this helps.

I think in LO you always have to have a line after the table on a page. 
I sometimes make the character height 6 pt to minimise the visual effect.

Hi,

You can place the table in a frame that is set to be behind the text on
the page (this will remove the space taken by the paragraph mark after
the table on the page but not in the frame). Anchor the frame to the
page, with the top at 0 cm from the text zone. Place the data in your
table and then spread the rows evenly in the table (from the table
menu). By adjusting the height of your table, you should be able to fit
it between your top and bottom margins. This is the easiest way I can
think of, but it is not straightforward.

I hope this helps.

Rémy Gauthier.

[libreoffice-users] Creating a table with equal sized rows

2017-09-17 Thread Ken Springer

Libre Office 5.3.6.1

Mac OS X 10.11.6 El Capitan

I've been trying to find a way to easily create a table that starts at 
the top margin, ends at the bottom margin, with all rows the same 
height, and not create a blank page at the end of the document.


Can this be done?
